Game Of Thrones Creators Prank Actors By Sending Fake Scripts, Killing Their Characters

Game of Thrones actor Isaac Hempstead Wright, who plays Bran Stark, has revealed the identity of biggest pranksters on the show’s set- showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss. Speaking to Yahoo Singapore, the 16 year old English actor revealed that the duo often send amended scripts to the cast where their characters have been killed off.

“They sent Alfie Allen, who plays Theon Greyjoy, a script where I jumped out and stabbed him in the back over and over again. And I got this text from Alfie: ‘Oh my god, just read the new script, you stab me to death, that’s amazing!'”

On the question of whether the cast members take bets on who will make it to the next season:

“I think we should start a sweepstakes. The first thing anyone does when they get the script is: Forget the story, am I alive?”
